Love dogs and walking

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Alyson and I love dogs. I have had dogs for most of my life. My last dog (Pongo, pictured above) passed away from old age a little over a year ago. I still feel like it’s still too soon to get a new dog, as he was very special to me and I still haven’t quite recovered, so I'm excited to have new furry friends come to visit and play. I also don't have kids and lead a fairly quiet lifestyle. I am very active and love exercise, so your dog will get to work out its energy with me. I have a spacious dog-proofed house and a big yard that they can run in and also lots of toys for various sizes. Your dog will get lots of attention and petting and play. I have a flexible schedule and am able to give your dog my undivided attention. I also have experience with leash training.

Information Alyson D. would like to know about your pet

No breed or size preferences. Medical needs (do they need medication or is there something I need to watch for) Dietary needs How they are with other dogs How they are with kids (I don’t have kids but we will most likely encounter them if we go out!) How much physical activity they need. General disposition. Things that might set them off (the dog is scared of loud noises for example).

A typical day

When your dog stays with me, we will go for walks, play, and cuddle. I will pet them a lot. There are a variety of places nearby (a lake, several parks, many trails) that we can go. I can also take dogs hiking on dog-friendly trails depending on their ability and their owners’ wishes. We can also play ball or chase and the dog will have access to many different toys and a big fenced yard.
